If you work really hard in school and get good grades, with a little luck, you can have a job like mine and get to have a conversation with Yvonne Strahovski. You may know her from her starring role in Chuck, or for her turn as Miranda in Mass Effect 2. Check out the below video, for the inside word on what it was like to star in one of the...

I love my homebuilt rig because the PC always wins when it comes to pure customization. Case in point: the clever folks that leveraged the character models from Mass Effect 2 and Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2 and integrated them into the zombie apocalypse, Left 4 Dead 2. Unfortunately, no one has yet to integrate voice samples in game, but...

I’m not sure how I feel about EA and Bioware’s new DLC strategy these days. At first, I loved the idea of incremental content which added an hour here, an hour there to games that I already enjoy but now that I’ve played it that way, I’m not sure it’s working.
To be fair, Kasumi - Stolen Memory, the first of Mass...

BioWare’s first batch of premium downloadable content is now available for their acclaimed space epic Mass Effect 2. Kasumi’s Stolen Memory was delayed most of yesterday due to a “technical snag at Microsoft.” But everything’s been worked out now, and fans looking to meet up with the 12th and final member of...

In the first, you'll...

Any opportunity to revisit the universe of Mass Effect 2 is welcome in my book, and it’s safe to say that EA and Bioware’s latest effort, the Firewalker pack, is worth playing. Granted, it’s free content for those who purchased the retail game and have access to the in-game Cerberus Network. Anyone else will have had to pay...

When it comes to game teases, if it doesn’t involve a countdown clock, I don’t want to hear about it (and Stephen "I Like Countdown Clocks” Johnson definitely doesn’t want to hear about it). Thankfully, BioWare have done me and Steve right by tossing a mysterious countdown clock onto their official website today, as...

Bioware shared more details on its upcoming premium DLC pack for Mass Effect 2, titled Kasumi - Stolen Memory. In the pack, players will have access to a brand new character, Kasumi Goto, a master thief with her own set of loyalty missions. There will also be one new research upgrade and weapon available, as well as one shiny new achievement! ...

BioWare took player feedback to heart for Mass Effect 2, creating a more streamlined shooter-RPG, and while the studio is promising to listen just as closely as Mass Effect 3 gears up, they're also expecting gameplay changes for the final installment in the trilogy won't be nearly as drastic.
"There will definitely be things that we tweak...

Just how much influence did your actions in Mass Effect have on Mass Effect 2? There were 700 plot hooks brought over from the original game, BioWare lead cinematic designer Armando Troisi revealed during a presentation at the Game Developers Conference this afternoon.
Troisi revealed that it's not feasible to let players change the major...

BioWare has revealed details and a rough release date for the new round of free bonus content for their galactic RPG Mass Effect 2.
The Firewalker pack will include five new missions, and give players access to a new vehicle called the Hammerhead, a "heavy assault vehicle that hovers over the battlefield at up to 120 kilometers per hour...

I placed was a small asterisk next to Electronic Arts' casual announcement of "something far-reaching from Mass Effect" in early 2011 during a financial call yesterday: maybe it was a mistake. Nothing Mass Effect-related was in EA's uncharacteristically detailed lineup for the next 12 months, but there was mention of a new Dragon Age...

Tomorrow, some much anticipated armor and a shotgun will be available for Mass Effect 2 players. Both PC and 360 gamers will be able to download the gear for free at noon through the in-game Cerberus Network. Here's what's on-tap:
Cerberus Assault Armor
Cerberus assault armor is designed for shock troops, turn the tide of battle against...

After the launch of Dragon Age: Origins and Mass Effect 2, you'd think BioWare would be quiet for a little while. But according to comments from Electronic Arts COO John Schappert, there is "something far-reaching from Mass Effect" coming between January 1 and March 31, 2011.
Schapper's comments came during a discussion of EA's latest...
